How to make a pen with your own hands - a huge selection of interesting master classes (66 photos)

Where does the plant start? Nooo, not from a hanger - from the address of the company president to employees, which is carefully hung exactly at eye level in the toilets, and not only there. So you involuntarily read it, after a week you learn it, and then, lo and behold, something changes in your head. The words are all correct! Jokes aside, but discipline at the plant is strict. Of course, no one walks in formation, but in everything else there is strict control. Even for a smoke break, which is allowed only six times a day, there is a strictly designated time. In general, the conditions, in the opinion of an ordinary office worker, are very harsh. And then there’s the assembly line, shifts of 8 or 12 hours (with lunch breaks, of course), and besides, you’re on your feet almost all day, and there’s no way to make a mistake - you need to check the work of the person from the previous stage of assembly and do your own well too and fast. Otherwise - stop! At the slightest mistake, the entire conveyor stops, and this threatens to disrupt the production plan.

In addition, more than one product model is produced on all lines. At any moment, each conveyor can switch from producing a cheap device to a premium model. However, the Ruza plant is far from Chinese small-scale mass production. There are fewer people, and labor is not so cheap. Of course, no one named the exact salaries, but a worker receives the same amount per month as the average for the given area, or even more. Mostly local residents from Dorokhov, Ruza, Tuchkovo and even Obninsk work here, but, judging by the uniforms, there are also a considerable number of “outsourcers” - temporary workers hired by a third-party organization. In total, almost 2,000 people work at the plant, which covers an area of ​​almost 50 hectares. Production is flexible to a certain extent and adapts to the current needs of customers - you can not only quickly switch to other models, but also stop part of the lines or convert them.

Decoration using satin ribbon

The simplest option is to wrap a bright shiny ribbon around the handle and attach a colorful bow or flower at the end. Such a simple gift will touch the recipient to the depths of his soul.

It is possible to use macrame. For a young woman, a pen braided with threads of various colors is suitable.

Decor used

Decorative elements can be:

  1. Rhinestones.
  2. Stickers.
  3. Sequins.
  4. Feathers and stuff.

Other reasons for the “movement” of the SMA along the plane

If the adjustment is made correctly, and the jumping and shaking do not disappear, the cause may be the close proximity of large stationary objects - cabinets, walls. With slight vibration, which is natural, the SMA can hit an object and move from its established boundaries. Therefore, a gap of 5-10 cm is left between the wall and the device.

A smooth floor can also cause the washer to “move” around the kitchen or bathroom. In this case, it is worth purchasing a rubber mat 1-2 cm thick and placing it under the device.

If the above reasons are eliminated, but jumps and movements during washing remain, there may be a malfunction inside the machine. You can fix the problem yourself if you have certain knowledge and skills in this matter.

But it’s better not to take risks and entrust the solution to the problem to professionals. The experienced technicians of our specialized service center, located in Rostov-on-Don, will help you properly install or repair your washing machine.

Vibration reduction mats and stands are effective helpers in reducing vibration levels.

Simple pen crafts

You can create many original things from the plastic pen body.

Phone stand

An attractive smartphone stand is made from several pens and a rubber band for banknotes. Make a tripod from three handle bodies held together with an elastic band. Attach 1-2 handles horizontally to two of them to give the structure stability. The resulting device is installed obliquely, and a smartphone is placed on it. This design frees up your hands, for example, for working on the keyboard.

Crossbow

To make it you will need 4 pencils, an eraser and a pen. A T-shaped frame is made from pencils, and a handle is attached to the base. Arrows from used rods are shot using a rubber band. Boys will especially be happy with this gift.

Lampshade for lamp

Such a lampshade, similar in design to multi-tiered chandeliers, is manufactured using the following technology.

A round-shaped plastic sheet is attached to the lamp. Pen housings, preferably transparent ones, are attached to it with wire or paper clips. After finishing the work, the bright lighting from the lamp will not dazzle others, and the entire structure will make a lasting impression.

Where to route the drain hose

If there is a sink or sink siphon nearby, there is no problem. You don't even have to redo the sewer system. You will need to buy a special siphon with an outlet for connecting washing machines and other household appliances and install it in place of the old one.


One of the siphons for connecting the washing machine drain to the sewer system

Another option is to connect the washing machine to the sewer directly. To do this you can:

  • change the sewer tee that goes to the sink;
  • make a separate outlet.


    Tee with outlet for connecting the drain of a washing machine

All these methods require alteration of the pipeline, but the connection will be major. There is one point: the diameter of the drain hose is much smaller than the size of the sewer pipes. To ensure tightness and ensure the absence of odors, special rubber cuffs are inserted into the outlets. The hose is simply stuck into them. The elastic edge of the cuff squeezes it, the connection is ready.

There are also temporary connection options. The drain hose is simply lowered into the bathtub, toilet or sink. This method, of course, is very simple, but not the best - the hose may fall, you may forget to put it back in place after turning on the machine, etc. Then the water drains directly onto the floor, and cleaning up the flood is not very pleasant, and even the neighbors below (if any) will definitely not be happy.


Lowering the hose into the toilet is simple, but unreliable

With any method of connecting the drain hose from the machine to the sewer, you must ensure that it does not bend or become looped. The corrugated drain hose is prone to blockages, so you need to ensure the minimum bend radius.


Rules for connecting a washing machine to the sewer

All this data is usually specified in the instructions, but usually the minimum bending radius is 50 cm, the maximum is 85 cm. In order to control the position of the hose, there are special plastic clamps that fit on top of the corrugation and hold it in the desired position.

3D technology pen

A necessary condition for its manufacture is a glue gun. After disassembling it using a screwdriver, the push mechanism is removed, and part of the handle at the bottom is sawed off.

The diameter of the outlet hole is reduced by placing a paper clip in it and fixing it in any way. You need to purchase a small fan and attach connectors to its power wires to connect the Krona battery. It is attached to the pistol from below. To install the entire structure, plastic clamps and glue are used.

Preparing for work

The first step is to select parts for your future homemade washing machine. You will need:

  • laundry tank;
  • electric motor;
  • sheet of plastic or textolite;
  • shaft for transmitting rotation;
  • connecting and threaded bushings;
  • shaft casing;
  • activator.

In addition, you need a sheet of rubber for making gaskets (an old tube will do), rubber plugs or bushings of small diameter, they will serve as limiters and will hold the lid on the tank during washing.

Feather pens

You will need a large feather from a turkey or goose. It can be painted in one or more colors at your discretion. For ease of use, the part of the pen shaft above the stop should be cleaned. The edge is sharpened with a sharp knife. After this, you can write with the pen.

Calligraphy pen

It is attached to the goose feather, and the attachment point is masked with decor. This pen can last for a long time.

Tools

Before you begin the most important stage, prepare the necessary tools that will be useful to you during the work process:

  • cotton swabs and disks;
  • clean white napkins;
  • brush;
  • syringe or pipette.

If as a result of your manipulations the paper becomes warped, then you will need an iron.

To “work on mistakes” at home or in the office, you can use other available tools. It all depends on your imagination and resourcefulness.

Homemade gel pen

The process of making such a craft is similar to creating ballpoint pens. A gel rod is inserted into a self-made body.

Handle - aquarium

In order to make such an attractive thing, you will need a transparent cylinder, hermetically sealed with a pre-painted cork. A gel rod is inserted into the drilled hole in the cork. The cylinder is filled with an aqueous solution of glycerin. As the concentration of glycerol increases, the viscosity of the solution increases and objects inside the flask move more slowly.

Fish and foil stars, sequins and other decor are placed in the solution. The flask is hermetically sealed, and the product is ready for use.

Paper pen

Part of a standard sheet of paper is cut so that when it is curled, a bevel is obtained. Glued paper is tightly wound around a glue-coated rod. The outside of the workpiece is also covered with a layer of glue. After the glue has dried, the surface is painted and dried. Then it is varnished to increase its service life.

It should be noted that in this design the used rod cannot be replaced and a new handle will be required.

Pen-pencil

After making such a craft, the two items necessary for the work will be combined in one. The pencil should be shortened by half, sharpened with a knife to the desired diameter and inserted into the body of the pen, and then secured with adhesive tape.

Before final assembly, the rod should be shortened to the required length. The remains of the pencil should not be thrown away; they will be useful for the next craft.

Exclusive pens

The material for such handles can be wood or chenille wire. A wooden handle is made from a block, drilling a hole in it for the rod and grinding it to the desired shape. Then they are sanded, painted if necessary and varnished.

Accommodation options

There are several places where you can put a washing machine:

  • toilet;
  • bathroom or combined bathroom;
  • kitchen;
  • corridor.

The most problematic option is the corridor. Usually there are no required communications in the corridor - no sewerage, no water. You will have to “pull” them to the installation site, which is not at all easy. But sometimes this is the only option. In the photo below there are several interesting solutions for how you can place the typewriter in the hallway.

Making something similar to a portal is also a way out


Hide in the nightstand


Integrate into hallway furniture

The toilet has all communications, but in typical high-rise buildings the size of this room is such that it is sometimes difficult to turn around there - there is no space at all. In this case, washing machines are placed above the toilet. To do this, make a shelf so that when sitting on the toilet you do not touch it with your head. It is clear that it must be very durable and reliable, and the machine must have very good shock absorbers. In addition, they must be set perfectly, otherwise they may “jump away” during the spin cycle. In general, with this method of installing a washing machine, it doesn’t hurt to make several strips that will prevent it from falling off the shelf.


The shelf is solid and reliable, but slippery - you need a rubber mat under the legs for shock absorption


Powerful corners are built into the wall; a washing machine is installed on them. The plastic stops were removed from the legs, and holes were drilled in the corners for the remaining screws. The installation is reliable, it is only important that the vibration does not tear the corners out of the wall


Can be closed with vertical blinds


This is already a whole cabinet. The only thing missing is the doors

In the bathroom and combined toilet there is usually not very much space either, but still more than in the toilet. There is a choice here. If you have space, you can place the washing machine next to the sink. You can install a table top on top, which will be a logical conclusion and will also solve the problem of water getting on the body. To make everything look organic, you need to choose a machine of such a height that it fits into the size, and the sink itself is better square - then they will be wall to wall. If there is not enough space, you can slide at least part of the body under the sink.

If space allows, just place the machine next to the sink.

There is a more compact way - to place the washing machine under the sink. Only the sink needs a special shape so that the siphon is installed at the back.

The next option for installing a washing machine in the bathroom is on the side of the bath - between its side and the wall. Today, case sizes can be narrow, so this option is a reality.


Narrow cases are no longer uncommon


Between the bathtub and toilet The sink should not be smaller than the body


Nobody bothers you to install a sink on top

Just keep in mind that installing such equipment in bathrooms or a combined bathroom is not the best idea. Due to increased humidity, the case begins to rust quickly (tested from my own experience). However, there is usually not a lot of space, although in principle, you can put the car under the washbasin or hang shelves above it. In general, it's up to you.

Another popular place to install a washing machine is in the kitchen. It is built into the kitchen set. Sometimes they close doors, sometimes they don’t. This is at the discretion of the owners. Several interesting photos are in the gallery.

Pen for secret correspondence

Secret ink is made quite easily from a low concentration solution of copper sulfate, which has a bluish color. When writing a text with this composition, it is completely invisible. To read the secret message, the letter must be placed over ammonia.

The letter will have to be written with a fountain pen, since the liquid solution will flow out of the pen. Lemon juice is also used for secret writing. To reveal what is written, the paper is heated with an iron.

Extending the life of handles

To restore the writing properties of a pen with unused ink, you need the following:

  1. Remove the writing unit and blow from the opposite end.
  2. Without disassembling, create a vacuum on the writing unit side with your mouth.
  3. Breathe on the writing unit to create condensation on it. This method helps if the ink dries out.
  4. If none of the suggestions help, the rod should be replaced.

In recent years, creative ideas for creating various crafts, including homemade pens, can be discussed on social networks, in particular in VK groups, discussing new materials, designs and technologies with participants.

When do you need something like this?

To some, the phrase “homemade washing machine” will seem absurd, but in reality such a solution can be very useful. For example, this is a great thing for a summer house. It’s hardly worth buying a new car, knowing that for most of the year it will just sit in an empty house.

Another situation is that the automatic washing machine has broken down and is taken to the workshop. The breakdown is serious, repairs are delayed, hand washing is not an option - you can spend a few hours and assemble a simple device with your own hands. Among other things, a homemade car will be a good solution for young families forced to huddle in rented apartments.

History of appearance

There is no unity regarding the name of the inventor of this technique: some sources call William Blackstone, while others call Nathaniel Briggs or James King.

Early mechanical models were produced for decades as the electrification of the world was just beginning. The mass production of washing machines, albeit mechanical ones, destroyed public laundries almost completely - they remained only for official needs. The oldest automatic machine was developed in the USA in the 1940s. Within 10 years, all manufacturers mastered the production of such devices, although semi-automatic and even manual versions remained in demand for a long time.

But not everything turned out to be as simple and easy as they sometimes imagine. In the first half of the twentieth century, developers of washing machines set themselves only the goal of achieving their basic functions. No one took any safety standards into account during the design, and many working parts were even left open. Only later did they begin to care about convenience, ergonomics and noise reduction.

In the 1970s, devices began to be equipped with the simplest microprocessors, and in the 21st century they are already becoming a full-fledged part of smart home complexes.
